The British Empire was built on cups of tea, and if you think I'm going into battle without one, you're sorely mistaken!

And if we were only discussing the quality of stories, you'd have a point. But showrunner includes a lot of poo poo that never makes it to the screen and for that you've got to respect Verity for getting the whole thing rolling and RTD for bringing it back from the dead.

Which is why I voted for Segal. Yes, The Movie was disappointing in many ways, but after watching the documentary about its rather long inception, I think we should all be very thankful for what Segal managed to achieve.

He used what little clout he had to kill Lost In The Dark Dimension.

Sorry to bring this back from a few pages ago but I thought Dimensions in Time happened because The Dark Dimension got canceled but they still wanted to do something for the anniversary? Was Dark Dimension really going to be that much worse?

Everything I've heard about it suggests it was going to be an absolutely awful grimdark 90s interpretation of Doctor Who. Yes, Dimensions In Time wasn't great, but at least it was the genuine article, so to speak.

Steven Moffat is an unrepentant misogynist, and the sooner he's removed from a position from which he can influence the young minds of a large and impressionable audience, the better.

Therefore if you mean what you say, you should put your eyes where your mouth is and stop watching until he's replaced.

I have, I just watch DVDs of the original series now.

I always knew he looked a little like his father, but something about this picture really made realize just how much Sean Pertwee looks like his father:


I've always seen the resemblance to Jon, but to be honest all I'm seeing right here is Martin Shaw.
